A marking script (autograder code) to mark the submissions using Input/Output in a file format with suitable late submission penalty for Python assignments/submissions by Arpit Gole.

This marking script makes the setting up of the assignment easy. Just change 4 variables in the run_autograder script as per your needs. These variables are:

1. num_of_test_cases - Specifies the total number of test cases needs to be satisfied.
2. points_per_test_case - Marks related to each test case.
3. student_code_file_name1/student_code_file_name2 - Main files to run the test cases on.
4. no_of_test_cases_to_run_for_file1 - Number of test cases to run on each submitted file.

Additionally, this marking script can make 2 different files. Ideally, can extend the same idea to mark n number of files (slight modifications needed.)

1. Gradescope marks the submission based on the marking flow defined in run_autograder script. Modify to have a custom marking flow.

2. Package management for the submission environment is done through setup script. Currently, the submission will run in Python 3.6.9 and the run_autograder script will run in Python 3.8.0. Yes, there are 2 different environments:- one submission and another running the marking script.

3. (Optional) Extra level of package management can de done through requirements.txt.

4. The test_case_files folder houses all the Input and Output on test case basis. For each test case 1 Input and 1 Output (correct) is supplied to run the submission.

5. Finally, create a *.zip of these 4 files: run_autograder, setup, test_case_files and requirements.txt to upload it on the Gradescope's Configure Autograder section. A sample is provided.

6. (Optional) Providing python scripts to Test Autograder upon successful built of docker image.

Happy Marking.
